21·9 days agoI am on the latest version of FF on Linux and I don’t have HDR working, not on YouTube, nor on standalone players like Jellyfin. Yes my display is HDR and Wayland+gnome is exposing HDR properly to games and Helium (chromium fork).
Since some govt and utilities sites only work on “chrome” (borked even with user agent switcher set to chrome+win on FF) I had to get this other browser, and the speed difference is noticeable on most sites, even tho theoretically FF should be faster since its stripping a lot of crap with uBlock Origin.
Tried flatpak’d Brave and also runs snappier than FF.

493·10 days agoI don’t really mind AI features where it makes sense. That being said, as someone else commented, this should have been a plugin.
I’ll add on top of that: this should have been a plugin wholly developed by Mistral. Mozilla should stop spending time and money on side features and focus on the browser and its engine. It still is way slower than any chromium based browser, lacks features that have been standard on chromium for years (eg. HDR video playback) and it’s way less efficient on battery than the competition.
Complaining about Firefox doing this and groveling on “I’m good, I’m on <random fork>” is spitting upwards: even the most modified forks like Zen still rely on Mozilla’s aging engine.

I’ve seen that message only when I forget to add my relay info and key. Maybe it’s not getting picked up? Check on settings > network > relay/ID see if the info there is right.
Dint forget the “no poop for a month”
Thank you for the link, I was seeing this wave of tesseract posts and I kept thinking “wtf why so many ppl are interacting with OCR stuff… I get Lemmy is nerdy but wth??”

Paperless always had some sort of primitive AI for document classification and auto tagging. I haven’t yet read the changes on 3.x but I’ve been using it for years and it’s like a dumb AI that needs a lot of guidance and manual tagging at first, but as time goes on, it “figures out” every document you throw in the ingest. I’ve been sending it emails, or uploading straight from the mobile app and its amazing, can’t go back to a folder filled with “Download(739).pdf” or “IMG_4926.jpg” files of random recipts and invoices

2·3 months agoDo you own concord on steam? Check again you can probably download the client anyway. I don’t have it, but I remember for a brief time people were playing with community servers after it got taken down.

131·3 months agoAs far as my account goes, even when publishers remove games, I still have access to my files.
This is crucial for community led projects that revive game servers, like The Crew, Hawken or Blacklight Retribution.
Sony is remotely deleting stuff (or more accurately, threatening to do so)
Just to clarify: I still prefer buying on GOG but the catalog there is slimmer. Steam so far has been more aligned with their users’ rights.
The fact that a company loses a license to something in a game disallows them to keep selling them, not stealing them back from their customers.
That’s the neat part. It’s open for you or anybody make a derivative and host it yourself however you want. Look at the thousands of models people are sharing on huggingface. Those most definitely don’t belong to some corpo control freak.
Also you don’t need frontier level models for menial everyday tasks.
Also also, Mistral is French 🥖

No need, you can create a password protected link that you can share so anybody can get in as a named guest. I host my own NC instance using the AIO docker since 2020 and since last year we’ve been using spreed (aka NC Talk). I manually added friends and family (each group with their own ACL rules) but also keep a live invite link for casual friends that might hop on a call every now and then. Password is just a safety measure so I don’t have randos joining the call/chat
